Default Special c5 radiator hose?

Alright, so this new car is killing me and one of the interesting bits that i need a new upper radiator hose. So I go to advanced and$10 later i figure I'm good to go. Not the case, the hose is too "wide" (the area between the bends is too long) and I can barely fit it over the water pump. So.. I was wondering where you all get your hoses? I have a biga$$ radiator in the car as well, but nothing else that special.

Glad I'm not the only one...

I think I'm going OEM only now.

I put the LG silicon hoses on a few weeks ago without much trouble. So far, so good.
